My cooking triumphs
I cook the best barbeque pork ribs and drunken chicken, and the best carrot cake ever.
My cooking tragedies
I "broke the gravy" once, the night before Thanksgiving day. After boiling turkey neck, liver, etc to make broth for gravy I "accidently" poured the broth down the sink. I went to the store to purchase additional turkey parts, and made new broth. After my wife made the gravy she put it in a gravy bowl and into the refrigerator. One of my sons came home late, raided the fridge, put the gravy bowl back in and quickly closed the fridge door. I opened the door to get a baby bottle the next morning and....the bowl came out and broke on the kitchen floor! I told my wife "I broke the gravy".
